strange vrrp behavior

I have 2 Vyos routers and running vrrp. I have several VIFs and they work fine. However, I just created a new VIF with VRRP and it is visible on router 2 but not on router 1. By this, I mean show vrrp does not list the vrrp on router 1 as shown in the run show vrrp pasted below.

router 1 config:

vif 60
address 100.64.60.254/24
description test
vrrp {
vrrp-group 1 {
advertise-interval 1
preempt true
preempt-delay 20
priority 120
virtual-address 100.64.60.1
}
}

router 2 config:

vif 60
address 100.64.60.253/24
description test
vrrp {
vrrp-group 1 {
advertise-interval 1
preempt true
preempt-delay 20
priority 120
virtual-address 100.64.60.1
}
}

router 1 - show vrrp:

run show vrrp

I have a server on the network and can ping both 100.64.60.254 and 100.64.60.253. I can also ping on out to the internet and the traffic flows through router 2.
If I disable the vif on router 2, then from the server, I can ping the interface address on router 1 (100.64.60.254) but nothing else.

I have restarted VRRP but that didn’t do anything. My next step is to probably reboot router 1 and if that doesn’t help, remove and reconfigure the interfaces.

Anybody have any insight or suggestions?

You should not use same priority on both routers. If you want all interfases to be master on one of the routers - use sync group.

Have you checked the log on router 1 for some error messages?

That was a copy/paste error in the forum message, not in the actual config. I upgraded to 1.1.8 (from 1.1.7) and rebooted and the problem is fixed. I’m pretty sure a reboot alone would have fixed it though.

Thanks for the reply.
